Fax Detect (with an External or Extension Telephone)
When you use this feature, you don’t have to press
Fax Start
or
5 1
when you answer a fax call
with an external or extension telephone and hear calling beeps. Just hold the handset of an external
or extension telephone and wait for several seconds. When you see RECEIVING on the fax screen
or when you hear “chirps” through the handset of an extension phone connected to another wall
socket, just replace the handset, and the machine does the rest. Selecting ON allows the machine to
receive fax calls automatically, even if you lift the handset of an external or extension phone.
Selecting OFF means you will have to activate the machine yourself, by pressing
Fax Start or
5 1 at the external or extension telephone. (You have to set Remote Activation to ON in

Printing a Reduced Incoming Document (Auto Reduction)

page of A4 recording paper, regardless of the size of the original document.

If you receive faxes that are split on two pages, change this setting to ON.
■
When you use Auto Reduction to reduce incoming documents to fit on one page
of recording paper, you can do so only as long as the original document is not
longer than 35 cm. If the original is longer than 35 cm, the data will not be
reduced and will carry over to print on a second page.
■
When you use Auto Reduction and you receive an incoming document that is
smaller than your recording paper, no reduction will take place, and you will get
the same size recorded as the original.
